Hi loscann, Welcome to Renderosity :) As to the sparkle image - I would suspect that it is a Java-script :) TerraDreamer has very sound advice, as to asking the sender about the creation of the image, and to please be very careful of accepting images from anyone that you do not know. Kind of like "Don't take candy from strangers" If you have any questions as to the Renderosity Community, please do not hesitate to contact any of the Mods, Coords, or Admins. Dee-Marie
